About This Item

Back in 2006, Groundspeak and Jeep released 6000 Green Jeep Travel Bugs as part of a contest. They were named after mountain peaks in the US. 6000 bugs, and not one of them named after a mountain east of the Mississippi! So we released a look-alike Jeep, and named it after the tallest peak in New England: "Mount Washington (NH) Green Jeep Travel Bug".

The Jeep lasted for just over two years, and accumulated 12682.5 miles, before it went missing.  Its last log was three years ago, so we are releasing a replacement on the COPY tag: this time it is a green Land Rover, and its mission is to see if it can last longer and travel farther than the original green Jeep.
